AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Barbados 2009 is a blend of pot and column still distillates that matured for 8 out of 11 years in Barbados’s tropical climate. Ex-Bourbon cask number 22 yielded 282 bottles, which contain spirit of highest alcohol content of all our Foursquare expressions, a whopping 64,4%.
Tasting Notes:
“And who’s behind again? Whiskyfun! This familiar single blend of pot still and column spent 8 years ageing under the tropics, the rest somewhere in the wilder reaches of Western Europe. Colour: gold. Nose: well of course, at this strength, and with the London Whisky Show looming where we’ll be tasting blind, we’re not about to risk singeing the old olfactory bulb. So, with water: it’s very gentle, vanilla-led, almost a little syrupy, with a touch of grassy juice adorned with honey and coconut milk. Mouth (neat): seems excellent, dominated by the ex-column side, though perhaps that’s just the near-lethal ABV talking. With water: there we are, tamed at last, and now curiously easy-going, even lightly sweet. Most likely 75 or 80% column, and very low-ester. Finish: same story, all in softness. Though we did bring it down to around 45% vol., let’s be honest. Comments: among the lighter-profile Foursquares out there. Still classy.”
Note: SGP:541 - 87 points.
